And just to get the obvious joke out of the way before Anil does, when you combine Double Double Dash with Anil Dash, you do in fact get Double Double Dash Dash. I can't wait until we get two more GameCubes and his parents are in town.

Anthony, first you need two gamecubes, two copies of MKDD, and two ethernet adapters for the GCNs.

The crossover cable you need is a standard Cat5 Ethernet Crossover Cable.

You can pick them up at any major electronics retailer for under $10, or at any small independant computer shop for somewhere around $5, or from you friendly network administrator (if you know one) with a great big box of cat5 cable and a crimper for about $0.20.

Things we like

Game Boy Movie Player/EmulatorI hadn't had the to time to play with my movie advance player recently, but it's improved by leaps and bounds. The video encoding and quality is better than it has to be for your Gameboy/DS screen, and you can also listen to music while you're reading ebooks. It also plays gameboy ROMs. And sometime in the past year the price dropped to $25. And it works with the gameboy micro. I cannot rave enough about this little creature. (*****)

O3 Software: Alien HominidRrecommended by Souris, side scroller with old-school personality and Viewtiful Joe sense of humor. The Nintendo polish that I expect isn't quite there, and it feels like a Playstation port of an old arcade game (the usual nintendo buttons don't work - b for back, for instance). This is partly intentional, I know, but I think this game is intended for more serious gamers. (***)
